Hi guys so first off i will explain im not really that technical when it comes to pc but i really do enjoy gaming.
Recently i have acquired a PC that i am wishing to add a powerful gpu too and am struggling to find much help regarding this.
The "workstation" is a dell prescision T3600 currently running with a intel xeon e5-1620 @ 3.60ghz, 32gb ddr3 ram and currently a firepro v5900 gpu which is a 3d rendering card in essence.
I am wanting to purchase a gtx 1080 potentially a evga or a msi gtx 1080 aero but am worried about 1 compatability, 2 cooling and if i need to add any extra cooling, 3 psu i currently have a 635w psu which the gpu asks for a minimum 500w psu so would i need to upgrade or is 635w sufficient for full performance and also would purchasing a gpu of this power be beneficial when only using ddr3 ram and in essence a server cpu.
Sorry if this has any "nonsense" in, as i said am not the most computer savvy person
